Heh, good luck using it. The keyboard in gtkfb 2.0.x is rather broken. I'd recommend using either 2.1.3 or the gdk-directfb port, http://www.directfb.org/ > > Should I now be able to compile GTK2 programs, without even having X > installed ?

The long answer to the earlier question is no: Mozilla uses gtk2 but still assumes it's sitting on top of X. They make several Xlib calls (especially font stuff), and probably also some gtk-x11 specific calls as well (like gdk_x11_font_get_xfont). So unless if the application is solely gtk2 (few are, though most are close), you won't be able to compile it without changes. My suggestion is if you want a framebuffer-based web browser try links2, http://atrey.karlin.mff.cuni.cz/~clock/twibright/links/. If you've got your heart set on using mozilla without X, get an iMac. > > Is there a way I can run GTK2 programs in my console, using framebuffer, > without using X or something like that installed? Yes, I do it often, with 2.1.3. After you compile gtkfb itself try running the testgtk program included with the source to make sure things work. > > > From > Glenn Sommer Eric _______________________________________________ gtk-list mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gtk-list
